I’m have a little bit of an issue with the following code and I was hoping for a few pointers as I think I’m close just not quite there.
I have the following query which without any filters works fine, it outputs the posts from the post_type ‘t_shirts’. The issue comes when using filters, the filters are stored in the array $filters for example, array(‘red’,’yellow’,’blue’);
Some items which no longer have a value stored within the ‘colour’ field appear when shouldn’t, or for example if ‘blue’ & ‘red’ are stored in the array it won’t output anything despite there being posts with the those colour values stored within the custom field ‘colour’.
Or another example if I just select the one colour as the filter, then all items which have a value in the field ‘colour’ regardless of whether it’s been deleted or not output, as though it’s just checking to see if there ever was a value.
I’ve attached my code and any pointers would be greatly appreciated, I feel like I’m almost there, just missing something very obvious.
$args = array(
'post_type' => 't_shirts',
'showposts' => -1,
);
if ($filters) {
$args['meta_query'][] = array(
array(
'key' => 'colour',
'value' => $filters,
'compare' => 'LIKE'
),
);
}
